What's Wrong?
Hi,
When on the phone with /remote-control and using /goal Claude does not immediately start working. For it to start working, you have to write an additional prompt for it to actually start working with the goal like "go on with the goal!" (workaround)
Thanks!

What Should Happen?
Like when in Claude code cli directly when using /goal it immediately starts working on that goal
